Eli Raridon vs DET in Munich — Deep-League Upside in Expected Shootout
Healthy and operating as the primary backup behind Hunter Henry, Raridon is quietly earning a bigger role in New England's passing attack. He has drawn 10 targets for 57 yards over his last two outings, and with Henry questionable due to a recent foot injury, the rookie could step into expanded snaps if the veteran is limited or ruled out.
Facing Detroit overseas in a game expected to be high scoring, our weekly projection pegs Raridon for roughly four targets and 30 receiving yards. His roster rate has steadily climbed over the past week as managers take notice of his growing involvement, making him an intriguing deep-league play who jumps onto the streaming radar if Henry misses time.

Outlook Sam LaPorta
Reliable Tight End Starter in High-Scoring Munich Showdown
Sam LaPorta enters Detroit's international clash against New England in Munich healthy and firmly established as the lead tight end ahead of Brock Wright. His yardage output has dipped recently, totaling 65 scoreless receiving yards over his past two games, and fantasy managers should monitor updates on quarterback Jared Goff (chest) and top wideout Amon-Ra St. Brown (rib) after both were limited in practice.
Despite the quiet stretch, an expected high-scoring matchup gives a surging Lions offense plenty of red-zone upside on grass overseas. Our models project LaPorta for roughly 10 fantasy points and around 40 receiving yards, keeping him widely trusted and started across almost every league. Given the thin tight end landscape, fantasy managers can feel confident slotting him into their lineups this week.
